About the Item
Signed lower right, 'Rhoda Holmes Nicholls' (British-American, 1854-1948) with dedication 'To my dear friend Marietta M. Andrenes'.
Framed dimensions: 16.75 H x 1.25 D x 10.5 W inches.
Born in Coventry, Rhoda Holmes Nicholls received her early artistic training at London's Bloomsbury School of Art where she studied under Edward John Gregory. She furthered her education at the Royal Female School of Art and, in Rome, with Michele Cammarano and Achille Vertunni. In 1884, immigrated to the United States and settled in New York City.
Nicholls established her presence within the East Coast art community, becoming known for her accomplished watercolor technique which is characterized by refined and intuitive brushwork combined with careful attention to light and atmosphere. She became an active member of several prominent art organizations including the New York Art Students League, the New York Watercolor Club, National Association of Women Painters and Sculptors and, from 1885, the American Watercolor Society. In 1896, she was elected to full membership, becoming one of the earliest women artists to be granted this distinction.
Nicholls exhibited widely and with success, including at the National Academy of Design, the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts, the Pan-American Exposition (bronze medal, Buffalo, 1901), Columbian Exposition (medal, Chicago, 1893), the St. Louis Exposition (bronze medal, 1904) and the Boston Art Club. Throughout her career, her work was well-received by both critics and public and it continues to be sought after by collectors who recognize the artist's unique contribution to the high watermark of American watercolor art. Over the course of a long and distinguished career, she was the recipient of numerous prizes, medals and juried awards. Rhoda Holmes Nicholls is well-listed in all relevant art-reference works, including Benezit and Who Was Who in American Art.

Early 20th Century American Impressionism -- Old Lyme New England Farm
By George M. Bruestle
Located in Soquel, CA
Gorgeous early 20th Century American Impressionist landscape of New England Farm by George M. Bruestle (American, 1871 - 1939), Circa 1914. Signed lower left and on verso. Presented in gilt-toned wood frame. Image size: 8"H x 10"W.
George Matthew Bruestle is an American Realist/Impressionist painter known for his intimate landscapes. Born and raised in New York City, Bruestle studied at the Art Students' League of New York in 1886 at the young age of fifteen and later in Paris. That same year, Bruestle visited Essex, CT and eventually purchased a second home in Hadlyme, Old Lyme as the Art Colony formed. Bruestle's main studio was in New York City.
Inspired by Jean-Baptiste-Camille Corot [1796-1875] and other French landscape painters, Bruestle's style was a mix of Early Realism and Early Impressionist techniques. He was an adept draftsman and his paintings favored earlier European examples but, later took on a brighter Impressionist palette and brushy quality of the Old Lyme Art...
